Muted satnav
« on: 16 July 2007, 15:34:47 »

Hi

Can anyone explain how the sat nav (Carin) works in my Elite?

I've bought a legit disc from ebay, which works great (for 10 year old nav anyway) but there is no voice coming through the speakers. There is the option for volume etc in the settings which I've tried and tried, but I am thinking it must be hardware related?

Can the Carin system lose the voice settings, do they need to be reloaded?
Is the system wired into the Bose amp, perhaps there is a wire missing? (not got time to check for a couple of weeks...)

cheers guys, found the speaker, not sure if the speaker has died or whether there is a wiring problem from the Carin system. Hopefully it'll be a speaker.

Anyone know the spec of it if I get a replacement from the likes of Maplins or somthing?

Hi!
Did you fix the problem with the muted SatNav?
I too bought an updated disk from Fleabay and there are still no voice commands.
Methinks it is a hardware problem i.e wiring, speaker etc.
Any info would be appreciated.
Cheers!
